Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-4816:
-----------------------------------------
This is confusing and apparently two things. What is an "xobject text stream"?
A PDFormXObject? PDFs are not really meant for update and it will likely be a
pain. You can access everything low-level by calling getCOSObject().
Re structure tree element there I can't help - have a look at the PDF
specification. There are a few answers on stackoverflow, but these were about
creating IIRC.
